In a bid for change, Adivasi students traveling from Nashik sought the green light to hold a protest at Azad Maidan, Mumbai. While the Maharashtra Congress provided shelter at their Dadar office, police interference ensued, detaining some students unlawfully. The incident prompted Congress leaders to rally for their release, with Rahul Gandhi urging the government to address persistent issues surrounding the educational facilities and hostel living conditions for Adivasis.
